Scream


show up late to school
cruise around the dormant metal detectors

right into the desk
evading the teacher’s questions

almost the right time
mad rush for the cafeteria

stop in the sea of faces
crouching down, opening the bag

rigid silence spreads
every eye suddenly on the same place

aim at a nearby girl
metal hits the floor amongst crazy laughter and

Screams

  2. Thank you both. ^^

    This follows along my usual poetry theme. I felt like I was running out of steam with the childhood thing so I went back.
